TVM?

I have a TWM short shifter. Been installed for a good 3 years or more. No issues

Minimal change IMO. Probably unnecessary, but I got a good deal on a used one from a forum member

If you are picky with transmission feel its a big difference. I paired mine with a countersunk heavy weight shiftknob and I love it. I like a very direct mechanical feel and the stock one was soft and loose imo. If a direct and mechanical is what you are looking for id highly recommend the twm short shifter!

Ya I get what you mean, my car has only 9000 miles on it and it's hasn't felt precise since new, could be the drivers fault sometimes but I find it rough getting shifter into certain gears. Could also be contributed by the clutch pedal feel, that s getting upgraded also.

Yea the stock clutch pedal is really funky. I also have an RJM clutch pedal and love it. Both twm and rjm mods make rowing the gears alot more satisfying and giving a better overall connection to the car.
